Praise the name of thy Lord the Most High,
Sabbihisma Rabbikal A'laa
Who createth, then disposeth;
Allazee khalaqa fasawwaa
Who measureth, then guideth;
Wallazee qaddara fahadaa
Who bringeth forth the pasturage,
Wallazeee akhrajal mar'aa
Then turneth it to russet stubble.
Faja'alahoo ghusaaa'an ahwaa
We shall make thee read (O Muhammad) so that thou shalt not forget
Sanuqri'uka falaa tansaaa
Save that which Allah willeth. Lo! He knoweth the disclosed and that which still is hidden;
Illaa maa shaaa'al laah; innahoo ya'lamul jahra wa maa yakhfaa
And We shall ease thy way unto the state of ease.
Wa nu-yassiruka lilyusraa
Therefor remind (men), for of use is the reminder.
Fazakkir in nafa'atizzikraa
He will heed who feareth,
Sa yazzakkaru maiyakhshaa
But the most hapless will flout it,
Wa yatajannabuhal ashqaa
He who will be flung to the great Fire
Allazee yaslan Naaral kubraa
Wherein he will neither die nor live.
Summa laa yamootu feehaa wa laa yahyaa
He is successful who groweth,
Qad aflaha man tazakkaa
And remembereth the name of his Lord, so prayeth,
Wa zakaras ma Rabbihee fasallaa
But ye prefer the life of the world
Bal tu'siroonal hayaatad dunyaa
Although the Hereafter is better and more lasting.
Wal Aakhiratu khairunw wa abqaa
Lo! This is in the former scrolls.
Inna haazaa lafis suhu fil oolaa
The Books of Abraham and Moses.
